What is sFlow-RT?

sFlow-RT receives a continuous stream of telemetry from standard sFlow agents embedded in network devices, hosts and applications and converts them into actionable metrics, accessible through a REST API.Metrics can easily be integrated with a wide variety of on-site and cloud, orchestration, DevOps and Software Defined Networking (SDN) tools.

How to use this image

docker run -p 8008:8008 -p 6343:6343/udp sflow/sflow-rt

Configure sFlow agents to send data to UDP port 6343 on the container. Access the HTTP/REST API on port 8008.

Similarly, a Dockerfile can be used to generate a new image from published applications. Any required System Properties can also be set in the Dockerfile. Using the RTAPP environment variable for application specific properties allows the user to set additional properties using the RTPROP variable (as shown in previous example).
